UpRising Bakery and Cafe in Lake in the Hills says she has been harassed and threatened after announcing plans to host a family-friendly drag show

Since announcing the drag show for all ages, UpRising Bakery and Cafe owner Corinna Sac said she's received numerous threats but said she is not backing down to anti-LGBTQ+ bullies, and the show will go on.

"Someone came in, did a perimeter walk around our cafe, commented on how disgusting and dirty it was, and then spit on our case," she said recounting another incident. "To take a really fun time, like a drag show, and then make it more family-friendly to involve everyone and anyone," she said. "The department will be taking a zero-tolerance approach for those individuals who choose to attend with plans to engage in acts of violence or criminal activity," police said.
